As a Research Associate you will catalogue and promote the University of Manchester Library’s outstanding collections of codices, scrolls and other manuscripts in Hebrew script. You will produce an online catalogue compliant with current cataloguing and metadata standards (in particular TEI P5) and will also promote the collections within the University and amongst diverse other audiences. You will have a Ph.D. in Jewish studies or a related area, ideally dealing with Jewish book culture, possess an excellent command of Hebrew and have extensive experience of cataloguing manuscripts in Hebrew script. Knowledge of other languages written in Hebrew will be a distinct advantage.
